i have some surplus gt bars 31.8 clamp area size £15 inc postage if your interested i can email pics
Am undecided as yet what stem to put on this.
Obviously the green forks and red frame is quite a mix (clash).
Have a oe plain GT silver stem, a nice black koski stem or a half polished x lite fly stem.
Thinking the fly but may get it podwercoated but not sure what colour.
XT V brakes fitted last weekend and cranks and BB have arrived. Just awaiting headset and cables and I'm away in its first rolling build, ready to replace with gears etc once funds allow.

Minor update on this.
Have now acquired XT V brakes, azonic bars (which would have come originally), and have a nice new ritchey post. Would have prefered a kore but this was a bargain and is lovely. Have some new kore skewers too which werent a necessary purchase but are lovely none the less.
Not sure on the brown grips as they were the only spares I have, but the saddle is really comfy so should be staying. Havent broken it in though so may regret saying that.
In the post are a NOS yellow Kore stem and a very nice XT M739 rear mech. Evenutally will get a fron tmech and shifters and probably around Christmas time make it geared as it deserves it.

To be fitted:
And I have some lovely Judy SLs but need to man up and attempt to fit the speed springs, but need to have some time to do that (know it is a relatively easy job but want to clean all parts first as think there is some dirt in the uppers and want it silky smooth as possible)
